Hi guys I need some help from the other side of the pond.
I have a Comptech kit with a 3.625" pulley, it has a 4060390 belt on that is fully adjusted and slips sometimes

I've tried to find a supplier of Goodyear Gatorbacks in the UK with no luck

Can anyone help me out?
Most the US suppliers don't want to post a single belt to the UK.
Can anyone pick one up for me and post it over.
Obviously I'll pay you for it via Paypal!

 

are you sure that's the right belt size? i remember the right size for a 4.25" pulley is 4060395 so a 4060390 seems wayyy too big for a 3.625" pulley

the belt is supposed to be difficult to get on the pulley. it's supposed to be pretttty tight even without the tensioner on it.

 

I've heard mixed reviews on those Gatorback belts...but they are generally available thru Auto Zone.

 

i use 3m spray glue !



works for me !

 

Nightcrawler - you might have a point I need to check the belt that is one, it is too large either way

S2Winks - to do what

 

getting the belt on the pulley BEFORE the tension should seem near impossible while youre doing it. that has been my experience. i've never had a belt snap on me or anything, other than the time when the tensioner was left loose by accident.

 

i spray it on the inside of the belt and it gets it really sticky.
Its been working for me .

 

Cheers guys!
The belt that is on was a PITA to get on really tight fit so it isn't that far off
It's just it is on full adjustment.

 

The last number in the set is what to look at. I have run a 80-85 with a 3.6 and remember it being pretty difficult to get on but I did. But really there is a good amount of room to adjust. If you look at how much the belt covers the pulley it isn

 

Thanks for the post S2winks. I may have to try that once I get my car back!
